Huckabee: Ben Gvir Betrayed His Country's Dignity

SadaNews Translation - The U.S. ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, condemned the filmed confrontation between the extremist Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir and activists from the Gaza Flotilla.

Huckabee stated, as translated by SadaNews: "There is widespread anger and condemnation from all senior Israeli officials, starting from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and Israeli Foreign Minister Gidon Sa'ar, to President Herzog and Ambassador Michael Leiter, due to Ben Gvir's disgraceful actions. The flotilla's journey may be a silly exhibition, but Ben Gvir has betrayed his country's dignity."

In this context, Channel 12 reported that Israeli Foreign Ministry officials stated that Ben Gvir caused significant damage to us by insulting the flotilla activists.

The Israeli Foreign Ministry sent an email to its embassies around the world, urging everyone to improve Israel's image by sharing photos showing the soldiers' good treatment of the flotilla activists.
